The Procedure

It Sits Where the Second Helping Used to Go

Soft silicone, filled once it is in place, taking the room your appetite had already promised itself. Nothing cut. Nothing removed. And in four to twelve months, gone.

Gastric Balloon in Turkey

Temporary · endoscopic or swallowed · no surgery

Gastric Balloon (Intragastric Balloon)

Twenty to thirty minutes. Three of them go down through an endoscope under sedation and are filled in place; the Allurion you swallow with a glass of water. Then it sits there — four months, or twelve — doing the one thing it was built for. At the end it comes out, and your stomach is exactly as it was. That is the offer, and the warning.

Suitable for

BMI from 27 upwards depending on type — a lower threshold than any of the operations, which is why it reaches people surgery does not.

What to expect

10–20% of total body weight over six months, published as 20–50 lb. Seven days in Turkey.

  • Temporary and fully reversible — it is removed after four to twelve months
  • No incisions, no scars, no stitches, and no permanent change to the stomach
  • Nausea, bloating and cramping for the first three to five days is normal, not a complication
  • No lifelong supplements, because absorption is not altered
  • The weight returns if the habits built during the window do not outlast the balloon

Cost Transparency

Three Prices - One of Them You Simply Swallow

They are not priced alike, and they should not be. €1,400 buys you six months. €2,300 buys you twelve. €3,200 buys you a capsule you swallow with a glass of water and never see again. What all three share is the day they come out.

*Turkey figures are the three balloons on our euro price list; the adjustable balloon is quoted per case and removal is €300 where we placed it, €500 where someone else did. Weight loss of 10–20% of body weight over six months varies widely and is not a guarantee, and the balloon comes out.

Why Turkey

Is It Worth Having a Gastric Balloon in Turkey?

The procedure is about twenty minutes. What decides whether it works is the month after it comes out — the habits, the portions, the dietitian you can still reach. Ask any clinic what their support looks like the week after removal, before you ask what the balloon costs.

Everything On One Site

Theatres, hospitalisation and aftercare in the same building, not a subcontracted hospital.

Five Types, Not One

Five balloon types placed here, including the swallowable one — not one option presented as the only option.

A Genuine Cost Difference

Lower operating costs, not lower standards. The published band here is $2,000–$4,500, all types.

Dietitian, Not Just Endoscopist

The Removal Question

Ask whether removal is inside the price, and who takes it out. Both answers matter.

Gastric Balloon Pathway

Space Occupied, Then Returned

A balloon stays four to twelve months depending on type, from €1,400.

  1. Balloon Type

    Endoscopic or Swallowed

    Some are placed under sedation; others are swallowed as a capsule.

  2. Filling

    Expanded Inside the Stomach

    Once in place, the balloon is filled to take up volume.

  3. First Days

    Nausea and Cramps Managed

    Medication and a liquid-first diet help the stomach adapt.

  4. End of Term

    Removed or Passed

    When its time is up, the balloon comes out, and your new routine carries the result.

Gastric Balloon FAQs

Gastric Balloon: Space in the Stomach, for a While

A gastric balloon is temporary. These answers explain the types, the first days and what happens when it comes out.

A gastric balloon is a soft, expandable balloon placed inside the stomach and filled so that it takes up space. With less room for food, you feel full sooner and eat smaller portions. It is a temporary, non-surgical weight loss treatment that is removed or passed after a set period.

A gastric balloon may suit adults with a BMI from around 27, depending on the balloon type, who have struggled to lose weight with diet and exercise and prefer a non-surgical option. Previous stomach surgery or certain digestive conditions may make it unsuitable.

Some gastric balloons are placed and removed using an endoscope under sedation, while others are swallowed as a capsule and filled through a thin tube. The type recommended depends on your BMI, goals and medical history, and it affects how long the balloon stays in place.
